They look innocent enough to me:

There ain't nuthin' innocent about them! Giggity-giggity-giggity

They're protesting the Sharks new ice-girls costumes.

Really, they're pretty tame, but the Sharks jersey belly-shirts look kind of stupid.....

People will fucking complain about anything, it seems.....

 

[Devil is Dill]

Those outfits don't seem very practical.

To be honest, when I go to a hockey game, I'm not in rink side seats. I'm usually up in the cheap seats, so the uniforms that the Ice Girls wear bearly get noticed. If there's a break in the action, I'm usually talking to someone anyway. I would think that if the uniform is an issue that is making some drunk guy think he's got a really shot with the Ice Girl, then it should be the Ice Girls that be saying something because it could be a security issue. Otherwise, they're no different than NFL cheerleaders. Nice to look at, but a harmless distraction.

I totally get the "degradation/objectification of women" issue. There are, however, any number of young women who readily dress like that just to walk through the mall. If they want to do it and get paid for it, good on them, I won't spend my money to see them, however, just as I won't eat at Hooters.

I could see protesting if this was forced slavery. But it isn't. These girls made a choice.
You wanna protest sex slavery, go down to the border. That's where it's happening.

Pretty much the US sports/entertainment industry in a nutshell (before someone gets worked up, it's not a whole lot better here either).
Graphic violence is all fine, but outrage of the worst sort should someone see a nipple. Hilarious.

I never knew that ice girls existed until just now.
And now that I am aware of their existence, my administration stands firmly in favor of them and all the work that they do.

 

[Guitar Heel]

You can thank my Canes for ushering in the era of hockey cheerleaders.

I had the pleasure of photographing one of the LA Kings ice girls two years ago. Jaw dropping beautiful. Need to look for those files. I guess.

my administration stands firmly

Well said.

 

[Knox in Box]

My administration is firmer than it's been in years.

They look innocent enough to me:

I would just like to let the Ice Crew know that I screw also. They should call me some time.

Well said.

Why thank you. I thought so.

My administration is firmer than it's been in years.

These women are providing a valuable service by allowing spectators to tell at a glance how cold it is down there on the ice.

Thread has potential...

Hockey's version of cheerleaders without all the routines that 95% of the audience ignores anyways.
